Paraview problem while launching

Tobi · May 11, 2013, 05:02

Hi all,

I am using Paraview for 4 years now but that error I never got.
When I am running

Code:

~: paraview

I get the following error:

Code:

/home/utkarsh/Dashboards/MyTests/NightlyMaster/ParaViewSuperbuild-Release/paraview/src/paraview/VTK/GUISupport/Qt/vtkEventQtSlotConnect.cxx, line 68
vtkEventQtSlotConnect (0xb14ea0): Cannot connect NULL objects.

But there is no folder or user called utkarsh

paraFoam works but paraview not

Can someone give me some advice?

Thanks tobi

Hi Tobi,

I need to know a few more details:

Which exact version of ParaView are you using and from where?
Which Linux Distribution you're using?

Because that sort of error message is somewhat normal... it's the path of the original build that gave the binaries you're using.
Even the pre-built OpenFOAM packages have Mattijs' name in the paths for the error messages

Best regards,
Bruno

Hi Bruno,

nice to hear from you.

The problem is solved. Dont know why but during today it was working again.

I am using the PV version of the third-partys and the latest version binaries from the official homepage.

Hi Tobi,

Then my guess is that you accidentally activated 2 OpenFOAM versions in the same terminal... which lead to one ParaView to use the Qt libraries of the other ParaView

Still only one OpenFOAM version was used out of the 2, but the ParaView versions were possibly playing around with each other's Qt

Best regards,
Bruno
